feat(nodes): per-node default domain with auto service hostnames (#65)

node_agents.default_domain gives each agent a base domain. Services
placed on it (explicit pin or spread) with no explicit service_domains
get <name>.<default_domain> — resolved in serviceDomainNames so edge
routing, wake placeholders, and public_url all see the same names.
Spread services union every eligible node's base domain; explicit
domains always win.

Surfaces: PUT /agents/:id {default_domain} (hostname-validated), CLI
nodes update --domain, MCP arg docs, OpenAPI + regenerated types,
node-detail inline editor.

Also marks the already-shipped backup-import roadmap item.
